The Persian Gulf. Just its name evokes oriental fascination, landscapes set between the turquoise sea and the warm colors of the desert. Its sound speaks of caravans loaded with treasures, of immensely opulent palaces and of legends whose origins go back to time immemorial.

Indulge in this luxurious journey with an MSC Cruise, through a tradition that is now consolidated but at the same time is integrated in the leap forward that the Emirates have made in these past years: Abu Dhabi and Dubai will surprise you with their daring, futuristic architecture and Sir Bani Yas island will delight you with a dream beach experience or a safari like no other between the mangroves, the desert and the protected bay areas.

Where there was just desert, today we find the tallest buildings in the world, the most luxurious hotels and the boldest of architecture that coexists with the historic palaces and the remnants of the long and rich Arab history.

Locations not to miss are the Gulf of Oman and its spectacular coral reef, Khor al Fakkan, Khasab and Muscat, where you can get a taste of the enchanted atmospheres of the one thousand and one nights.
